Russia invites ONGC to consider buying stake in Magadan 2 field: Reports

16 Oct 2012 Evaluate

Russia has invited state run Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) to consider buying a stake in the Magadan 2 field operated by Rosneft in the northern part of the Sea of Okhotsk, as mentioned in media reports. Russia granted exploration licenses for five areas in the Sea of Okhotsk, Magadan-1, -2 and -3, Lisyansky and Kashevarovsky, to Rosneft at the end of last year.

Further, according to Rosneft estimates, the total recoverable resources at these deposits stand at over 1.1 billion tonnes of liquid hydrocarbons, 2 trillion cubic metres of gas, which includes 850 million tonnes of oil and 1.789 trillion cubic metres of gas at the Magadan 1, 2 and 3 blocks. Moreover, ONGC via its wholly owned subsidiary, ONGC Videsh, is in talks with Russia’s Rosneft to pick up equity in the Magadan 2 project.

Recently, ONGC Videsh (OVL) signed definitive agreements for the acquisition of Hess Corporation’s 2.7213% participating interest in the Azeri, Chirag and the Deep Water Portion of Guneshli Fields in the Azerbaijan sector of the Caspian Sea (ACG) and 2.36% interest in the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan Pipeline (BTC), for $1 billion. The acquisition is subject to relevant government and regulatory approvals and is expected to close by the first quarter of 2013.
